Over on RSS-DEV:
“There are millions upon millions of people who use services like My Yahoo for customized news, stock quotes, etc. Why not start sending them to an RSS aggregator instead?”
Funny how some things have their time, I think the battles are over for RSS, version 2.0 gives the majority of people what they want, extensibility through modules, but stays simple, and for those that really need RDF, they can go back to version 1.0.
More surprising is how the idea that RSS could rival My Yahoo is seen as something new – this is where it started, several years ago there was an RSS aggregator: My Netscape.
